Hybrid Utility Working Group Calls for Information on Class 4/5 Work Trucks

Hybrid Truck Users Forum Utility Working Group recently released a call for information at the Green Truck Summit at the Work Truck Show. HTUF's utility group is seeking feedback on key performance parameters for Class 4 and 5 hybrid work trucks.

The Working Group consists of more than 20 large fleets in the U.S. with an annual combined purchasing volume of approximately 3,000 vehicles in the Class 4/5. The goal of the group is to work with a committed manufacturer/manufacturing team to produce a pre-production volume of trucks for field evaluation and vehicle optimization. If the trucks meet specifications, the ultimate goal will be commitments to production volume purchases.
